Flavorful Fitness: Teriyaki Chicken after a long break

It seems that mid-terms and Spring break have made for a long hiatus from blogging...whoops! One would think that over break I would have done more blogging, but that just wasn't the case. I didn't even cook very much because all of my family and friends wanted to go out to eat with me. I'm not really complaining, but I ate a little more pizza than I should have :)

Anyway, this week is my boyfriend's Spring break and he came back down to Durango with me. Last night we made a great dinner: teriyaki chicken, stir fry veggies and baked spinach hummus!

*Sorry for the poor quality of all my photos, our apartment seriously lacks natural light!*

The recipe for the hummus came from here and it was so wonderful! Westin and I really enjoyed it both last night and this afternoon for lunch. As for the chicken, it's a super easy recipe and it makes the chicken so tender and juicy!

Here's what you need:
Clean Teriyaki Chicken

1lb chicken breast (I used 1lb tenders)
Marinade:
2Tbsp each low sodium Teriyaki sauce and Agave
1Tbsp EVOO
1tsp garlic powder
1Tbsp Sriracha hot sauce (optional)
1/2 C chicken broth

Combine all marinade ingredients in a 9x9 baking dish, add the chicken. Let it marinade in the fridge for at least 2 hours, but no longer than a day.
After the chicken has been marinading, preheat oven to 375 F and bake chicken for 25 mins.

That's it! Super fast and easy! Great to pair with brown rice and veggies. Yesterday, I sauteed 1/2 an onion with some frozen peas and green beans. The marinade for the chicken is a great drizzled on the rice and veggies! After it's been cooked of course, to get rid of any bacteria.

Over all it was a great dinner with lots of flavor, we paired the hummus with some pita chips.
